Ride Holidays' Charity - Te Awakairangi Trust

Our primary goal is put bikes in schools and targeting kids that need them the most, providing an opportunity to learn how to ride a bike - something that you and I take for granted.

We are also committed to not just handing over a bike and saying go for it. We plan to work with the Trust so the kids learn and are trained in bike maintenance, safety and education.

Cycling obviously has been very good for RIDE Holidays which is why we've agreed to match any donation you make. Our target for 2018 is 30 bikes. Small steps however very achievable. Being transparent - we are purchasing the bikes (including helmet) through https://iride.net.nz/ for $450.00. We are seeking donations from you for either ¼ (NZD112.50) or ½ (NZD225.00) of a bike.

Te Awakairangi Access Trust is a registered charity. For this reason it will be the trust that takes payment from you so that you are sent an official receipt and can then take advantage of the tax exemptions (only available to New Zealanders I'm afraid) come the end of the financial year. We promise to make this an easy process.

Our goal is let you know exactly what schools and children benefit from your donation. We will send you photos and I'm sure the kids will want to show their appreciation. So, how about helping us get a few children on bikes?
